I would like to see teachers more concerned about helping their students rather than telling them it has to be that way, and I feel like administration didn't care much about students concerns or accommodations.

The school has a lot of great things to show for it. Many of the teachers will go above and beyond for their students, and with the proper motivation, students can well prepare themselves for college. The downside is there are also members of the school and administration who do not care as much about the school as their coworkers and do not add as much to the the students experience.

They could always have more clubs to make it fair for all students to find something they like. Student Counsel has been my daughter's preferred club. I think all students involved put in effort.
